“We fell in love, despite our differences, and once we did, something rare and beautiful was created.” -Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook
This shoot, hosted by Down South Creative Co, was a true Nicholas Sparks lover’s dream! Cypress Gardens in Moncks Corner, SC was the filming location of the iconic swan scene in The Notebook. The Gardens are absolutely stunning with mossy-oak-lined pathways and a serene lake (but keep an eye out for alligators!). For this styled couples shoot, we were able to rent a charming little rowboat and recreate the swan scene in our own way! Take a look at some of my favorite photos from the shoot- you’ll feel like you’re in the movie!

Special thanks to the amazing team that contributed to this shoot!
